Gabola Church of International Ministries is a new south african church founded 2 months ago

although it has not been going long, it has already over 500 worshippers

by way of contrast, the long established Church of England has over the years seen a steady decline in support to a record low of just 1.4% of the population attending its weekly Sunday service ( http://tinyurl.com/juc25cl )

so what’s pulling the punters in to the Gabola church, and is there a lesson here for the church of england to follow?
